Paint Your Pet

A Guided Pet Portrait Night at Fallsview Arts

Your Favorite Subject, On Canvas

Your dog, your cat, your horse, your bearded dragon. Paint Your Pet is a one-night creative event where you paint a portrait of the animal you love most, with step-by-step guidance from a professional artist.

It has the same easy, social energy as our Paint & Sip nights. The difference is that every canvas in the room is one of a kind.

How It Works

1. Register below.

2. Upload a photo of your pet at least 5 days before the event.

3. We sketch your pet onto your canvas before the event, so you can start painting right away.

4. Paint your pet. You'll be guided through color, fur and texture, and how to capture the expression that makes your pet yours.

What to Expect

• Your pet pre-sketched on your canvas, ready to paint

• Clear, step-by-step instruction

• A small, welcoming group

• All materials included

• No painting experience needed

Bring a Drink, Bring a Friend

Bring wine, tea, sparkling water or whatever you enjoy. Come solo, bring a fellow pet lover, or make it a date night.

You'll go home with a finished portrait of your pet, ready to hang.

Photo Deadline: 5 Days Before the Event

Your pet's photo is due at least 5 days before your event so your canvas can be sketched in advance. For the February 13 session, photos are due Monday, February 8.

Photos received after the deadline may not be ready for your session.

Tips for a Great Pet Photo

• Take it in natural light, without flash

• Get down to your pet's eye level

• Make sure the face and eyes are sharp and in focus

• Send the original photo, not a screenshot, and no filters

• One pet per canvas
